The World's Top 8 Economies In 2030

07:23
The inequitable distribution of income is present at the global level where the nominal gross domestic product (GDP) of the top ten economies adds up to 65 percent of the world’s economy, and the top 15 economies add up to 75 percent. The remaining 172 countries constitute only 25 percent of the world’s economy at present time. That's according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Latest macroeconomic projections that go out to 2030.So lets look at the World's top 10 Economies  in future 2025.

1. United States


                                                  The United States is an economic superpower that is highly advanced in terms of technology and infrastructure and has abundant natural resources.The country, worth 25 percent of the world economy in 2006 and 23 percent in 2015, will see its share decline to 20 percent. 

2. China

China has transformed itself from a centrally planned closed economy in the 1970’s to a manufacturing and exporting hub over the years.The Chinese economy at this time is propelled by an equal contribution from manufacturing and services (45 percent each, approximately) with a 10 percent contribution by the agricultural sector. 

3. India


 The country will have the largest workforce in the world within the next 15 years, the IMF notes, and among the youngest.However, the services sector has picked up in recent years and now accounts for 57 percent of the GDP, while industry contributes 26 percent.

4. Japan


Japan, which was a roaring economy until its asset bubble burst in the early 1990s, has already slogged through decades of stagnation and will likely continue to see very little growth over the next 15 years. That will push Japan down a spot in the rankings by 2030, according to the USDA estimates. 

5. Germany


Germany is Europe’s largest and strongest economy. On the world scale at present time, it ranks as the fourth largest economy in terms of nominal GDP. Germany’s economy is known for its exports of machinery, vehicles, household equipment, and chemicals. Germany has a skilled labor force, but the economy faces demographic challenges like most European nations. 

6. Brazil

Brazilian economy is has developed services, manufacturing, and agricultural sectors with each sector contributing around 68 percent, 26 percent, and six percent respectively.Brazil is a part of BRIC and ahead of all other South American economies. 

7. United Kingdom


The econom.y of UK is primarily driven by services, as the sector contributes more than 75 percent of the GDP. With agriculture contributing a minimal one percent, manufacturing is the second most important contributor to GDP.Although agriculture is not a major contributor to GDP, the country produces 60 percent of its food needs domestically by employing less than two percent of its labor force.

8. France


France, the most visited country in the world.France has a low poverty rate and high standard of living.

(Earth 2.0) The Really Amazing Aacts About Kepler-452b

01:43



  • Kepler 452b is located around 1,400 light years from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus.
  Kepler-452b is the first exo-planet found which is orbiting a similar star to our sun, known as a G2-type star, at a similar distance from its star that Earth is from the sun.

 This gives it a greater change of having the conditions, surface temperature, atmosphere, and water, that are needed for life, than any other planet ever detected in our galaxy.

It is the smallest planet yet discovered that orbits in the habitable zone around a sun-like star.

  It is 60 percent larger in diameter than Earth, so is considered a super-Earth-size planet. Its mass and composition are not yet determined, but the mass is estimated at two to five times that of Earth.


A year on 452-b is 385 days - just 20 days (5%) longer than Earth's. The planet was found by observing the tiny blip it caused against its star as it orbited around.

The planet is also 5% further away from its star, than the Earth's 92million miles to our sun, at 96,6 million miles away.

 The Kepler-452 solar system, which 452-b is in, is located 1,400 light-years away from ours in the constellation Cygnus.


  • The habitable zone, also known as the 'Goldilocks Zone', is an area around a star which has just the right temperature to allow for liquid water to exist.
  • Kepler 452b is considered the most Earth like planet yet discovered due to its size, location in its system and the type of star it orbits.
  • The star that Kepler 452b orbits is very similar to our sun.
  • Kepler 452b orbits its star at a similar distance that the Earth orbits the sun.
  • A year on Kepler 452b is only 21 days longer than a year on Earth.
  • The mass and composition of Kepler 452b are unknown at this time but its small size indicates that it is most probably a rocky planet.
  • It is thought that the force of gravity on Kepler 452b would be twice as strong as Earth's gravity.
  • The Kepler 452 system is 6 billion years old, which is 1.5 billion years older than our solar system.

8 Amazing Butt Facts That You Should Know

12:08

1. Have you noticed how men have bellies and women have fat 

asses?



Well, it’s biologically made that way. Women’s estrogen cause fat to deposit on their butts rather than their bellies. (Source)

2. What about silent farts?

The hair around your ass hole muffles your farts. So, it’s impossible to fart silently if you shave your ass hole. (Source)

3. Belly fat v/s fat ass.

People with more belly fat tend to die earlier than those with less belly fat. So expect a long life with more fat on your ass than on your belly.  (Source)

4. Thank your ass everyday – you can walk, climb and stand all due to it!

Your ass is part of your body’s most powerful muscle group, which has the gluteus maximus (your ass), gluteus medius (another muscle in your ass), and gluteus minimus (a third muscle in your ass). Your ass’s muscle group is responsible for all your locomotion — everything. Standing up, walking, climbing stairs, crouching, or just standing erect. (Source)

5. There is a bone at the top of your ass called the coccyx, which used to be a tail before evolution weeded it out.

(Source)

6. Fart on! It’s normal.

On average, people fart between thirteen and twenty-one times a day. Basically, if you’re not farting all day, there’s probably something wrong with you. (Source)

7. Your average poop is 75% water — exactly our planet’s land to water ratio.

(Source)

8. Your poop isn’t only waste material — it retains up to 50% of its original energy. Not that you should start eating it — please don’t!

8 THINGS YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT SOUTH KOREA

13:54

1.The ‘Banchan mentality’ Is A Reason Why Google Isn’t Doing Well in Korea
Korean_food-Bibim_ssambap_and_various_banchan-01
 Forget complex algorithms, many Koreans will tell you the reason why they won’t use Google: it simply doesn’t understand them. Koreans are generous by nature: if you’ve ever had a Korean meal, you know that people put everything on the table, and that means lots of ‘Banchan’. ‘Banchan’ refers to the (numerous) side dishes that come with a meal in Korea.


2. You are born at age 1

0406_Korean_Age_1

 

When you are born in Korea, you are immediately considered to be one year old. This means that whatever your actual age, instead your Korean age will always be one year older.


3.There Are 250 Different Kinds of Kimchi
 
 variety-korean-kimchi

Koreans take their kimchi very seriously: it is a staple in the Korean diet, and a side of kimchi is always expected when having a meal. And if you think you know kimchi, think twice: there are 250 kinds of kimchi, the most popular of which being cabbage kimchi (paechu kimchi), diced raddish kimchi (kakktugi), cucumber kimchi (o-i kimchi) and water kimchi (moul kimchi).


4. Koreans Eat Seaweed Soup On Their Birthdays
Seaweed-Soup9Image Source: Diningwithoutlaws
It may seem like a conservative, no-fun way to celebrate one’s birthday, but in a country where mothers eat highly nutritious ‘myeogguk’ prior to giving birth, seaweed soup has a deeper meaning: to remind children of the pain of childbirth and to appreciate the care given to them by their mother.

5. Koreans Don’t Do ‘Sweet 16’…
IMG_0517Image Source: Popco
But they celebrate a person’s very first birthday in the most festive manner. On ‘Doljanchi’, the birthday baby wears a hanbok, Korea’s traditional garment and a traditional hat. No birthday cake involved, but expect a full table of traditional food for the occasion, including the infamous seaweed soup, fruits (an expensive delicacy in Korea), panjeon (Korean pancakes), and rice cakes.


6. Adultery Was Illegal Until A Few Months Ago
1297668642487_ORIGINALImage Source: Timminspress
For 62 years, married Koreans faced up to two years in prison if they had extra marital affairs, or got involved with a married person. The rationale at the time was to protect women and good morals, but a jury eventually repealed the law in February. About 53,000 South Koreans have been indicted under the law since the authorities began keeping count in 1985.


7. Koreans Cheer High School Students Taking The National Exam By Giving Them Candy
South Korea University ExamImage Source: Washington Post
Taking the ‘sooneung’, the Korean university entrance exam, is a big deal in Korea: it is not exaggerated to say that a lot of a family’s life revolves around it. Parents put their kids to private institute from a very early age and devote about 10% of their budget to make sure that their offspring have the best possible chances of success.
Mothers even go to temple to pray for their children’s high score on their senior year – so if you think about it, that’s a lot of pressure on a 17 year-old’s shoulders. As a result, on the day they take the test, a crowd of supporters, normally family and friends will gather at the gates of a high school and hand the kids sticky candy for good fortune: Koreans give traditional sticky candy, so students can stick to the passing score!


8. Koreans Believe In The Influence Of Blood Types On Personalitiesmov-20050008-14Image Source: Phimmoi
It is not uncommon for Koreans to ask a potential match what their blood type is: it is thought to give an indication of someone’s personality and can help determine levels of compatibility. All types boasts strengths and weaknesses, but type B is commonly thought as being the least desirable, as demonstrated by the success of this popular Korean movie. Koreans are quite superstitious, but the practice can be compared to our fascination for astrology.

Amazing Butt Facts That You Should Know






They’re actually the name of fleshy cushions inside your ass hole that control your poop. Painful abscesses on your ass hole are caused by hemorrhoid disease.

1. On average, 10% of the people getting ass implants are men.



2. There are some horrible treatments for hemorrhoidal disease.

They include wrapping a rubber band around them until the swollen and exposed portion dies and falls off, receiving an injection in the affected area (which causes the swollen hemorrhoidal tissue to wither and fall off), or cauterizing. Thankfully, the latter now involves using lasers, instead of a hot piece of metal.

3. What’s an ass augmentation surgery?

When you have ass augmentation surgery using your own body fat, the fat is usually taken from your stomach and implanted in your ass. This makes future fat appear on your ass instead of your belly because your body wants to deposit fat where there’s already fat.

4. Kim’s x-rayed ass is still debatable.

Kim’s x-rayed ass is still debatable

While Kim Kardashian famously x-rayed her ass to prove she didn’t have ass implants, the x-rays were never analyzed by a medical professional, who is the only type of person who could actually discern the signs of ass implants. What we’re saying is that the case isn’t closed on the Kim K ass implants rumor.

5. One of the biggest reasons humans (and other primates) evolved asses is just so they could sit down.

6. There is an ancient Greek word for having an awesome ass — it’s ‘callipygian’.

7. People have died from pooping too hard. It caused their blood pressure to rise enough to shake loose a blood clot or burst an aneurysm.

8. 99% percent of the gasses that make up your farts don’t smell.

Farts are mostly oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen and methane. The other one percent stinks — it’s made of sulfuric compounds.


 Never poop clog.

You can get what’s called an anal abscess from poop clogging the glands in your ass hole and causing an infection. If the infection goes untreated, it can grow into a giant infection in your ass cheek, fill with puss, and require drainage.use it moved faster than normal through your intestine, or becausoorrhoids aren’t a medical condition.
